The London Youth Games (LYG) Foundation aims to inspire and enable every young Londoner to find their best through sport with opportunities to compete, volunteer and support. 

The games have a history of producing the country’s most high-profile athletes such as Mark Hunter, Christine Ohuorugu and Sir Bradley Wiggins.

Thousands of young people from all London Boroughs compete in over 30 different sports such as Athletics, Archery, Basketball, BMX, Canoeing, Diving, Fencing, Football, Handball, Hockey, Judo, Kayak, Netball, Indoor Rowing, Sailing, Squash, Swimming, Table Tennis, Trampolining, Volleyball as well as an inclusive calendar.

This is a great opportunity to represent your borough.

Due to Covid-19 this year’s calendar is slightly different with LYG Virtual Games launching on Monday 8 June.

Three challenges will be released every week on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday at 9 am for 4 weeks and the winning borough will be crowned LYG Virtual Games Champions on Saturday 4 July.
